GSD students Naz Beykan (MDesS) and Jainxaing Huang (DDesS) had fun with field research that will make a serious contribution to understanding the cooling effects of green space on the urban landscape.

Imagine if cities were planned taking into account water use, alternative energy sources, waste streams, biodiversity, and green space. That’s just what students are challenged to do in the Urbanism, Landscape, Ecology research concentration at the GSD.
